It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 37 Man, you have crossed the line

A quarter of an hour later.

The eunuch on duty came over and told Zhu Li that he could enter.

Zhu Li also waited for the nectar from the poplar branches as she wished, and drank it happily while holding the wooden cup.

Strange to say.

Zhao Ci discovered that the food in this world was very similar to that in the previous life, but it was difficult to trace the origin from historical data. Every search would point to the same theory, that it was unearthed from the ruins of the previous dynasty.

Yes, relics of the previous dynasty.

There are gaps in the historical data before Dayu, and the entire country also emerged from the wilderness. However, it is certain that before the wilderness, there was a Xianwu Yun Dynasty with extremely prosperous civilization. It is unknown why it collapsed and no one was left.

But fortunately, relics were left behind. Although there are not many historical materials left, the mythical stories and the achievements of civilization have been passed down.

When you have the strength and qualifications to enter the ruins in the future, you must go in and investigate. Maybe it has something to do with the previous life.

[Tip]: The wish is completed and you will receive rewards: Comprehension value +10, Taotie Talisman X1.

[Taotie Talisman]: When attached to the target's stomach, it will fill up its digestive capacity within twelve hours and absorb all the beneficial ingredients for its own use.

Hey!
Good stuff!

Zhao Ci was slightly happy. There were many top-quality elixirs in the world, but it was very difficult to completely refine the medicinal properties. Just like the Feng family's spirit animal dung was a treasure in the eyes of medicine dealers, in fact, the huts of many wealthy families were often used by Xiao Mao. The thief stole it.

It's because of incomplete absorption.

The current common understanding is that it is not easy to absorb [-]% of the efficacy of a pill.

If you keep this thing and eat it with Huangji Dan and other heavenly and earthly treasures, it will be a real profit.

"Zhao Ci, why are you laughing?"

Zhu Li looked at Zhao Ci doubtfully.

Zhao Cixin said: "I see you are happy drinking Yangzhi nectar, and I am also happy."

Zhu Li: "..."

She subconsciously slowed down half a step and put some distance between herself and Zhao Ci.

Avoid the relationship between the boss and his subordinates.

the man.

You have crossed the line.

Zhao Ci ignored her and continued walking forward, and soon brought her to Wangshu Palace.

Since I had already informed him, I went straight into the main hall where Gu Xiangzhu usually stayed.

Today's Wangshu Palace is a bit cleaner.

Gu Xiangzhu was making tea behind the screen as usual.

"Baby pays homage to mother and concubine!"

"Zhu Li pays homage to Concubine Jing!"

behind the screen.

Gu Xiangzhu was as reserved and cold as usual when meeting guests: "Ci'er, why did you bring Miss Li here so early?"

Zhao Ci smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Returning to my mother and concubine, it was difficult for the child to open the mansion, but Miss Li came to the rescue in the nick of time. With her superb alchemy skills, she accepted the recruitment of officers for the child and solved the urgent need for the alchemy workshop, so today I specially invited Li The girl has come to Wangshu Palace as a guest, so that we can discuss the matters of the Gongdan Conference together."

Zhu Li was still cautiously looking at Concubine Jing behind the screen, but when she heard words like "superior alchemy" and "urgent need", her chest puffed up unconsciously.

She knew that she would look helpless like this, so she tried desperately to suppress the corners of her mouth.

But even though the corners of his mouth were drooped, he still couldn't change the smile on his face.

I even had the urge to put my hands on my hips.

"Oh?"

Gu Xiangzhu was a little surprised: "It's a good thing that you invited Miss Li here so quickly. Stop standing around and come and sit behind the screen."

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The two men bowed slightly and walked behind the screen.

As soon as Zhu Li crossed the screen, her eyes eagerly glanced in the direction of Gu Xiangzhu. She heard that Concubine Jing's beauty was the best in Linge, but few people had seen it with her own eyes. She had been curious for a long time.

The moment she saw Gu Xiangzhu, she couldn't help but whisper.

For a moment, his eyes were a little distracted.

This is too beautiful, right?

Although her expression and temperament are not that of a girl, her skin is unbelievably perfect. Is this Zhao Ci's sister or mother?

She glanced at Zhao Ci.

Forget it, Zhao Ci is not worthy!
Although my boss looks decent, he is not on the same level as Concubine Jing!
The designated bloodline has mutated.

"What are you doing standing still? Sit down quickly!"

Zhao Ci pointed to a seat.

"Oh!"

Only then did Zhu Li come back to her senses and sit in front of Gu Xiangzhu in a rather reserved manner.

Zhao Ci walked up behind Gu Xiangzhu and naturally pinched Gu Xiangzhu's snow-white neck: "Miss Li is willing to help the child, thanks to the mother-in-law's fragmentary words. During this period, the mother-in-law has worked hard because of the Danfang matter. !”

Gu Xiangzhu: "???"

Are you giving me a massage now, is it so natural?
I don’t know why, but this time I didn’t feel as violated as I did the first time during this massage.

But the skin-to-skin contact and caressing still made her feel strange.

But this scene was so natural that she didn't know how to stop it.

Fortunately, Zhu Li spoke.

"It turns out those fragments of sentences were given by your Majesty. I would like to thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Ci curled his lips. This girl is usually very carefree. How come she is so shy when seeing a beautiful woman?

Gu Xiangzhu smiled faintly. Unexpectedly, Zhao Ci was still thinking about his favor all the time, and for a while he was no longer so resistant to his hands that were still kneading.

She said softly: "They are all our own children. I will need your full help in dealing with Ci'er from now on. As an elder, I can only help you so far."

"What are you talking about, ma'am?"

Zhu Li patted her chest and promised: "Don't worry, Madam, with my alchemy skills, this Gongdan Conference guarantees..."

The two chatted like this.

After a while.Gu Xiangzhu felt that the skin around his neck was a little hot, so he changed the subject: "Ci'er, what is in your bag?"

"Oh!"

Zhao Ci knew that it would be rude to continue, so he reluctantly let go of her snowy neck and opened the cloth bag on the ground: "Last time, the child found that the concubine had a bad appetite, so he wanted to find some delicious dishes for the concubine. Have a taste.

Unexpectedly, I searched all over Linge and couldn't find anything fresh. It seemed that the chefs in the palace could cook it, and the mother and concubine must be tired of it.

This is the only one..."

"what?"

Gu Xiangzhu's eyes lit up slightly when he saw the fresh mushrooms in the bag, but he quickly regained his composure and pretended to be confused: "These mushrooms look strange, I have never seen them before."

[Gu Xiangzhu’s current wish]: What a big boy, hurry up!Make it for me quickly.Reward for completing the wish: Comprehension value +100, skills you can steal: Secret Code of Hundred Poisons.

Pack!
Continue to install!
The reward for this mission is still the Secret Code of Hundred Poisons, which should be just a variation of the previous wish.

But it is already quite generous.

This bitch looks pretty cool.

Zhao Ci didn't seem to notice, and just explained with a smile: "Haier got this from a friend of the Yang family. It is said that these mushrooms are the most delicious mushrooms in Yunnan in the eyes of the people in southern Yunnan. I have tasted them once, and it is true." It was delicious, so I shamelessly ordered some, and learned some cooking techniques by the way, so I made it for my mother and concubine."

"Very good, Ci'er, you are thoughtful!"

Gu Xiangzhu's eyes felt a little hot. It was not that she had no appetite, but she had lived in the palace for more than ten years under someone else's identity, and she had to borrow resources from the Xiang family. She had to be very careful with every move she made.

She has been thinking about this local dish for a long time.

However, due to political reasons in southern Yunnan, if you want to get fresh mushrooms, you need to go through special channels. If you contact them rashly, you will easily be exposed.

Suddenly seeing this familiar mushroom, I felt like tears filled my eyes.

This familiar green umbrella, and this familiar red umbrella with white pole...

a time.

Her eyes looked at Zhao Ci with a hint of tenderness. In the past, she had always regarded this mediocre and cheap son as a burden and just wanted to get rid of him quickly.In recent days, Zhao Ci's temperament has changed a lot. Although it is a bit extreme, she admires him quite a lot and even wants to win her over to join him.

But these are also rational considerations.

But this time, she felt that Zhao Ci was much more pleasing to her eyes.

"Mother, just wait, I'll do it right away!"

"Well, let's go!"

"Your Highness, go quickly! It's good for me to accompany you here."

Zhu Li was also a little anxious.

Zhao Ci: "..."

……

After a stick of incense.

Zhao Ci came over with a dinner plate. On the plate was a large plate of mushrooms, three or four plates of cold dishes, and three bowls of white rice.

Zhu Li couldn't help but come over and said with some disappointment: "It doesn't look good from the looks of it!"

“Good food should not be judged by its appearance!”

Gu Xiangzhu smiled faintly, then took the lead in picking up the rice bowl and picked up a handful of mushrooms with chopsticks, but suddenly paused: "Ci'er, have you cooked these mushrooms?"

Zhao Ci smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, concubine, it's been fried for a while! I've asked about it, and it will be toxic if it's not cooked properly, so I fried it for a while."

"Oh!"

Gu Xiangzhu nodded with satisfaction, then picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth.

For a moment, the indescribable umami taste exploded on the taste buds, and the thoughts it evoked echoed in my mind, and even my eyes couldn't help but become moist.

"So delicious? I'll try it too!"

With a skeptical attitude, Zhu Li also picked up the end of a chopstick. After taking a taste, her eyes lit up. She didn't care about praising Zhao Ci and just started making it with her head down.

It's true that boars can't eat fine bran.

[Tip]: The wish is completed and you will receive rewards: Comprehension value +10, Taotie Talisman X1.

[Tip]: The wish is fulfilled, and you will get the reward: Comprehension value +100, steal the skill: Secret Code of Hundred Poisons.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Zhu Li ate happily, with a mouthful of mushrooms and a mouthful of cold vegetables.

But while he was eating, he suddenly stopped and looked at Zhao Ci dissatisfied: "Your Highness! Your chopsticks are long and thick, like the barrel of a gun. When you take down the chopsticks, the food will be gone. What will my wife and I eat?" "

Zhao Ci was confused, glanced at his normal chopsticks, and couldn't help but ask: "I thought I was cooked, why are you still hallucinating?"

Chopsticks nodded: "That's right! I'm only two inches long in total, how can I be as exaggerated as a gun barrel?"

Zhao Ci: "..."

broken!

The mushrooms are cooked.

I didn't wash the knife when cutting cold vegetables.

He stared at the chopsticks, and the thing smiled ferociously, and suddenly grew in size, like a golden cudgel, and punched a hole in the main hall of Wangshu Palace.

In an instant, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked, and a terrifying chasm appeared on the ground.

He lost his balance and fell into the ditch. The terrifying feeling of weightlessness made him howl uncontrollably.

"broken!"

Gu Xiangzhu's expression changed and he quickly sealed several of Zhao Ci's large holes.

Zhao Ci immediately stopped screaming, closed his eyes, tilted his head, and fell into Gu Xiangzhu's arms.

Gu Xiangzhu looked serious. He quickly hugged him and put him on his lap. He took out the silver needle filled with medicine and gave him acupuncture. Although these mushrooms were difficult to cause substantial harm to practitioners, but what if...

It's been a long time.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In the huge palace, she hugged him while Zhu Li yelled and ran around on the floor.

The palace maid and eunuch who reacted also ran over in panic. After seeing the scene inside, their hearts fell to the ground.

Concubine Jing was safe and sound.

His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince has turned the corner.

Miss Zhu Li is still alive.
